Is this a virus? when i scan with virus total it shows "Trojan/Win32.Wacatac" Wacatac is known for spreading to other computers and logging passwords, now im kind of scared.
LOVE THE GOOSE!! HONK Also is there a way to disable the goose to pulling out texts/pictures? Do I just delete any notepad/picture files in the folder? I really love it but I want to have it while working on my computah, and I don't want to keep closing the windows (or maybe I can just lower the frequency?).
In my case, I tried deleting notepad/picture files in the folder, but it didn't work (it still showed me a picture with an x on it as well as a note). But for some reason, I just discovered how to do it, just by setting the Min&Max&FirstWanderTimeSeconds=86400 seconds (equivalent to 24 hours or more if you want [you can also just edit the MaxWanterTime only with it]; it's up to you ^^).
If you want the goose to steal or chase your cursor (since I noticed that you have to do it manually when you follow my method above as we've set the frequency on longer periods, hence it doesn't chase on its own; just wandering around :D), just click on the goose's shadow ^^.
I hope the creator notices your question and adds this kind of feature to it.
usually,windows protects u mostly cuz the game is taking control of ur pc,but that's part of the game,or if microsoft doesn't know the author windows thinks he's some shady man,but in this case,this game is safe,just hold esc for 10 secs if u wanna remove the goose
press the funny button on the right of the searchbar (or windows icon if you have it disabled). if you don't know what button here's how it looks like:
it's probably not maintained anymore but it seems that it does work for multiple monitors (the goose took my mouse) but it doesn't display anything on the second screen (the goose was invisible), maybe an easy fix ?

no, you cant have virus on itch
Many people have used this and havent gotten viruses even if it is just protect your pc with nordVPN or Opera GX
this is the nature of desktop pets, it needs api hook to actually react to your input...
No that must be from something else. Desktop goose is called a “virus” on YouTube to get the views, u can literally just hold esc to evict the goose
e Goose
😍😍😍🤑🤑🤑
help, how do i turn him off. Ive only ended up gaining even more geese on my screen, pls help
you hold escape :)
just go in task manager and end task goose deskto
In the folder with the application, there should be a batch file for windows, called "Close Goose". That works to turn him off.
LOVE THE GOOSE!! HONK

You do know you could just hold esc?
for all of those who wants to quit DesktopGoose while he is dragging ur cursor and stuck like that, here is some advice i figured will work
Windows: all i kno is that holding escape will help u so good luck
Mac/Apple: so if "Escape" key does NOT work, then you should do this:
1. press F3 + Control + Fn, then u should be in the dock.
2. use arrow keys to navigate u to downloads. then you can press return and navigate again using arrow keys.
3 when u have found the DesktopGoose package u should press return and this will send u to finder and go onto Desktop Goose
4. just press command + O and u will be sent to the settings page
5. use tab key to navigate and press tab until you are selecting the "Quit Desktop Goose" and press space
Rlly hope this helps...
That fact that you have to put out a message like this is concerning lol
or command+shift+esc+arrow keys+enter

TUTORIAL: how to evict goose
there's tons of comments where people cannot remove the goose from their device.
there's like 4 ways let me show you
1. hold ESC
holding ESC eventually removes him.
PROS:
removes goose (no shit)
can be used anywhere, anytime (yippee)
CONS:
takes too fucking long (impatience moment)
2. open Close Goose.bat
your copy of deckflop ghost comes with a .bat file called "Close Goose"
this runs a command that, naturally, closes goose.
PROS:
removes goose (no shit)
CONS:
you have to travel to the folder to get it (or create a shortcut to it)
can't be relied on if goose nabs your mouse (you have to CLICK)
can accidentally be deleted (whoopsie daisy)
3. bugs!
on the right of your search bar (or windows icon if searching is disabled) should be a weird icon.
click it with goose enabled and he SHRINK.
hovering over the goose reveals the X icon. press it to INSTANTLY close goose.
PROS:
removes goose (no shit)
goose cannot intervene (he can't nab yo mouse)
can be used anywhere at anytime
CONS:
looks weird
4. close everything
shut down the system and reboot.
all applications should be closed when returning (including the fucking goose)
PROS:
removes goose (no shit)
goose can do absolutely NOTHING to stop you (too weak)
CONS:
risky (please save any unsaved progress or else your 1000 word document is fucked)
takes too fucking long (impatience moment 2: cortex strikes back)
whhats ur discord user if u have one
i don have discorpse
hahayes
this glitch with goose
you can do this to fast-travel to folders in windows but goose is just an overlay so it does that
WAIT WHAT??? HOW CAN YOU DO THIS???
press the funny button on the right of the searchbar (or windows icon if you have it disabled). if you don't know what button here's how it looks like:
bro i have my windows xp taskbar
the hell does that mean are you goosing around in win xp or have you just not enabled it (the funny icon)
no i have RETROBAR!
The Autumn mod is somewhat lackluster, i want autumn memes, however that would work
HOW DO I CLOSE THIS!? PLEASE!!!
task manager, or in the files there is an application to close goose
are you on windose or mac
lust hold esc
he becomes invisible on my other monitors. hes great fun though for an adhd goofball like me
how can i turn it off..
hold ESC
Why is goose mean, i am trying to make a game and he steals my mouse.
i love him
how off him???
hold esc or run Close Goose.bat
oh thank u god u are a life saver HE TOOK MY MOUSE
oh yeah to not trigger the goose you must know what triggers him
- clicking on him
- closing his special programs (the not-epad and the photos)
yeah that's it
wait how do i close him and do i have to restart my pc to close him?
HOLD ESC OR OPEN CLOSE GOOSE.BAT
Gave us a download for Mac, we need windows?
theres quite literally a file with Windows in the name.
an unlikely match: deckflop ghost and pits a tow err
this little fucker makes me want to die, so i made this to express my feelings for goose
he's really annoying
you in the noise mode
i figured it out just log out of the whole mac book air and sign back in and voilaa theyre gone.
no the thing actually isn't supposed to close like that
to evict goose, the intended way is either:
- open Close Goose.bat
or
- hold ESC
how to delete it since im having to do it is sooo hard
Hold Esc or use Close Goose
it's probably not maintained anymore but it seems that it does work for multiple monitors (the goose took my mouse) but it doesn't display anything on the second screen (the goose was invisible), maybe an easy fix ?
the more hilarious fact is that this 'virus' is made on indie games platform installer
sometimes when the duck takes my mouse, it permanently takes it, and I can't close it(tried esc) im on Mac.
